Brief summary

Study will use real time 3 dimensional echocardiography (RT3DE) to determine right and left ventricular volumes, ejection fraction (EF) and mass on patients with congenital heart disease under going cardiac MRI. This is a validation study of RT3DE, a new modality of cardiac imaging for clinical use in congenital heart disease.

Interventions

Real time 3 dimensional echo (RT3DE) data to be collected from subjects with congenital heart disease for measurement of Right ventricle (RV)/ Left ventricle (LV) parameters and compared with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data of the same parameters. This would take 1 year.
